Stanford certainly is.  I wish I hadn't had so much experience with it,
though!

>From the MRI, it appears that it almost certainly is a tumor.  Good news is
that it is operable and surgery is scheduled for Wednesday.  And the team
thinks it probably won't be malignant.  In my tiredness, I described the
location wrong.  It's in a frontal lobe, which makes a lot of sense, given
the fact that he's been struggling (like me, somewhat) with ADD symptoms.
Unlike me, he has a rather clear cause, since the mass is between the size
of a golf ball and a lime.

All of us, including Dave, are feeling positive and optimistic, which may
seem a bit odd.  Too tired to write more about that, though.  All thoughts
and prayers are very welcome.

Nick
